Setting Up Marvell Yukon Wireless Interface

R

rebugProg

I just installed FreeBSD 8.2 on my laptop and have been trying to use the handbook to set up wireless internet.

The card is a Marvell Yukon 88E8036 Fast Ethernet and it is referenced as "msk0". I have configured it (I think) according to the handbook here.

The command:

Code: 
ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev msk0

gives me the error message

Code: 
wlan_clone_create: reject, not an 802.11 device

Is there something obvious I'm missing?

The Marvell Yukon is a wired Ethernet interface, not wireless. Wireless will show either on the list of PCI devices:
% pciconf -lv | grep -B3 network

or in the list of USB devices:
% usbconfig
 
Problem Solved

It looks like my actual wireless card was actually an Intel, which was much easier to set up wireless for.:r

Thanks for the help finding my actual card, I was wondering what the FreeBSD equivalent for lspci was.
